Chapter 79 Shadowless Palm

After about one stick of incense, Xue Chang picked up a test paper and said to Xu Xi in a gentle tone: "You only made 5 mistakes, and you only wrote one or two less wrong words. It can be seen that you are studying seriously, and you just told the truth. Write each typo ten times so that you can remember it."

"Yes." Xu Xi, who was calm on the surface and nervous on the inside, breathed a sigh of relief.

"Xiao Wu." Xue Chang looked at Xue Wu, who looked very nervous, and said gently: "You wrote 32 words wrong, but you wrote it very seriously. I just told the truth, so I will write each typo 10 times, hoping that I can write all the same right next time."

"Thank you... Thank you some masters!" Xue Wu nodded repeatedly.

"Xiao Di." Xue Chang's expression became serious: "You just said you know everything. Do you think you have written it right?"

"It should...no..." Hu Qiudi whispered nervously.

Xue Chang's expression was still serious: "This time I'm telling the truth. You wrote two wrong words, each typo 30 times. In the future, when your junior sister teaches everyone to read, you should also study hard. Don't pretend to understand, do you know?"

"Yes, Master." Hu Qiudi blushed and responded in a low voice.

"Fan Yamad!" Xue Chang suddenly shouted.

"In..." Fan Yu, who was already very uneasy, was so scared that he trembled all over.

"Do you still think I am your master? You dare to lie to me, you know everything! You are right with 60 words. This is what you say! You can't do it!" Xue Chang shouted with a stern face: "Write me every typo 60 times, and you have to write it for me. I check it before I finish my meal. If you don't pass the qualification, you can get out of the way! I will test you again at that time. If there is another word that cannot be written down, you still have to get out of here. From now on, I will no longer be your master, and you will no longer be my apprentice! Do you understand?!"

"Ming...Ming...I understand, Master..." Fan Yu was really scared this time, and his upper and lower teeth were fighting.

"Then why don't you write it!"

“Yes…yes…Master…”

There was silence in the room.

In the past, Xue Chang was not only strict with his apprentices when practicing martial arts, but he was always friendly and sometimes even like friends. It was the first time he met him as strict as today, so both Xu Xi and Hu Qiudi were a little nervous.

In fact, Xue Chang intended this because he felt that he could not stay in the mansion every day to teach his apprentices. Once he went out, he entrusted others to urge them to complete the task on his own, or instructed them to complete the task by himself. These apprentices, especially Fan Ya and Hu Qiudi, who had a dissatisfaction personality, would probably be scammers. Therefore, he took this opportunity today to give them a warning to let them know that the master's order is difficult to violate.

Xue Chang looked around them with a serious expression, and did not comfort him anymore. But when his eyes fell on Xue Yuting, who was also nervous, his eyes softened: "Little sister, you are a teacher today and do a good job. Your senior brothers and sisters have gained more or less, and they will continue tomorrow."

"Yes!" Xue Yuting nodded vigorously.

Criticism depends on the object. If an apprentice like Fan Yu is not fierce, he will not take it seriously; and for the introverted and sensitive Xue Yuting, she may feel depressed for several days when she speaks a little harder, so she should try to focus on encouragement... Xue Chang, who was a teacher in her previous life, is still very clear about this.

Facts proved that Xue Chang's performance in the afternoon had a good effect. Before dinner, not only Fan Yu, but also several other apprentices remembered all the words they taught today.

And just as they were remembering it hard, Xue Fu found Xue Chang: "Young Master, you have already bought everything you asked me to buy."

"That's great!" Xue Chang followed Xue Fu to the original servant's kitchen. The things he wanted were neatly placed on the stove: fennel, cumin, fragrant fruit, grass fruit, amomum villoss, cloves, white beans, sanna, bay leaves, star anise, tangerine peel, lemongrass, licorice... In addition, there are bean drums, fermented glutinous rice, dogwood, peppercorns, butter, and vegetable oil.

"I thought the court prohibited the people from killing plowing oxen, and it would be difficult to buy butter. Unexpectedly, you can buy so much, Bo Xue!" Xue Chang picked up a large piece of solid butter and smelled it, and said happily.

Xue Fu explained: "Young Master, you don't know that although the imperial court prohibits killing plowing oxen, there are many nobles and wealthy merchants gathered in Chengdu. They have a great demand for beef. The foreigners on the western border of our region love to raise long-haired cattle. Therefore, some merchants specialize in this business and sell long yaks to Chengdu, which is allowed. Since some restaurants like to cook with butter, the butter is sold separately and is not difficult to buy."

"I'll feel at ease."

Xue Chang continued to pick up the things on the stove one by one, sniff and bite them to determine their quality. He asked, "How much does it cost to buy these things in total?"

"It costs about 15 taels of silver." Xue Fu was afraid that Xue Chang would be dissatisfied, so he explained: "Young Master, most of the things you want are spices, and the prices are relatively high. There are a few things that cannot be bought in the market. You must find a special relationship, so you have to increase the price-"

"15 cars are not expensive." Xue Chang said sincerely: "Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Fu, it's beyond my expectations that you can buy all of them in one day!"

"Young Master, this is what I should do." Xue Fu couldn't help but asked curiously: "What are you planning to do when you buy these things?"

"Try to make a hot pot soup stock that is both numb and spicy." Xue Chang said with a smile: "If it can be successfully made, we will make money from it in the future."

"Oh..." Xue Fu understood a little, because the word "hot pot" had already existed. As early as the early years of the previous dynasty, some northerners began to try to set up copper basins on the stove to cook vegetables because of the cold weather. The family sat around to eat it, which not only relieved hunger but also drove away the cold. It soon became popular and gradually spread to the south, especially among the people of Bashu, because the winter here is wet and cold. However, the popular hot pot method on the market is to boil various old soups that had been stewed, then add various foods to cook, and eat them in a big mouthful. However, he had never seen the hot pot soup ingredients like Xue Chang said.

Can this thing make money if it is done?... Of course he has doubts about it, but he is tactful and didn't ask.

Xue Chang did not notice the slightly strange expression on Xue Fu's face at this time. His attention was all about the pile of red dogwood fruits in front of him: There was no chili in China at this time, so the spicy taste of this hot pot can only be provided by dogwood fruits. According to previous experience in cooking at Jinya Rice Shop, its spicy taste is obviously not enough to compare with peppers, but it is enough for people who have not experienced the stimulation of peppers in this era. Moreover, through dehydration, drying, purification and other methods, the spicy taste may be improved. However, dogwood contains a little bitter taste, and maybe a little rock sugar should be added in the process of making hot pot soup...

While thinking, Xue Chang recalled the process of making hot pot bases in his previous life. Once, he used the hot pot bases he bought to make hot pot. I don’t know if it was because the hot pot bases expired or other reasons. He vomited and pulled the needle one day after another. After two days of ventilation in the hospital, he was stimulated by this. After that, he checked information online and made simple hot pot bases, thinking that this was more hygienic and safe.

"Try it step by step, I hope it can be made successfully..." Xue Chang murmured to himself, holding the dogwood fruit.

After dinner, Xue Chang took his disciples to practice martial arts, and Mingzhen also followed him to learn Arhat Fist, but Xue Chang did not refuse.

When everyone returned to the room to rest, Xue Chang began to practice light skills and Baihuaquan alone. After returning to the bedroom, he spent some time using the system to conduct practical training, and fell back into a hard battle with the corps master who defeated him during the day, looking for ways to defeat him, and finally spent the long night in the practice of internal skills.

After waking up in the morning, I was still exhausted and full of energy.

Morning exercises, breakfast, arrange for apprentices to study, and go to Shujiang Escort Agency for combat training again.

On this day, he paid more than 30 taels of silver. Due to his familiarity, the total number of ten people fought against each other, with a record of 9 wins and 1 loss, and a prestige of 445 points. The only loss was to lose to Wang Jingwu.

After watching Xue Chang's many games, this number one expert at the Shujiang Escort Agency finally got unbearable and got on the court.

Xue Chang tried his best and still couldn't beat Wang Jingwu, who had good internal skills, superb marksmanship and experienced mastermind.

However, Xue Chang still returned home in a comfortable mood, because his prestige in the system finally exceeded 1,000 points, reaching 1,156 points, so most of the martial arts secrets in the system mall can be purchased.

After being severely scolded by Xue Chang yesterday, the apprentices learned very seriously today and all passed Xue Chang's test successfully.

Zhang hired an old lady, bought a maid, and hired a doorman. The entire Xue Mansion finally looked like a little.

After dinner, Huiming said goodbye to Xue Chang.

"Uncle Master, stay for a few more days." Xue Chang didn't feel much sincerity when he said these words to keep him.

Huiming smiled and said, "I haven't been waiting anymore. I have been harassing me for two days and I'm doing nothing here. Instead, I'm really sorry for you."

"Uncle Master, you are here to help us the greatest help!" This is Xue Chang's true words. The monk from the Luohan Hall of Shaolin Temple is in charge of Xue's mansion, so who dares to make trouble?

"I felt relieved when I saw you arrange your family affairs in an orderly manner and at the same time, I was hurrying to practice martial arts diligently." Huiming said frankly with regret on his face: "I originally wanted to spend more time to persuade you to join me Shaolin, but you really don't have the intention in this regard. Although I feel regretful, I believe that with your efforts, you can definitely revive your family business!"

Xue Chang said with some shame: "Uncle Master, there are too many things to do in the past two days, and I don't have time to accompany you-"

Huiming waved his hand: "I won't say this anymore. I told you last time in the Martial Arts Inspection Department that I should try not to interact with the people from the Iron Blood Changhemen, but—" He looked at Xue Chang with a serious expression: "The person who defeated Lin Lei here two days ago was from the Iron Blood Changhemen, right?"

Under Huiming's gaze, Xue Chang said truthfully: "He is indeed a member of the Iron Blood Changhemen. He was just coming to me on his own initiative and willing to provide me with so much help. Although I don't know why, I was in a difficult situation at the time and really couldn't refuse to accept his help. In fact, he did help me solve the big problem."

"I have also heard about the Sihai Escort Bureau forcing you to pay debts. Although the Military Inspection Department strictly prohibits all sects from interfering in local affairs, I still want to come over and stop Lin Lei from oppressing you-"

"Uncle Master is not saying lies." Ming Zhen said seriously, "Three days ago, he was going to bring me over to test you, but I heard from the people in the military inspector here that there is a suspicious person here and I don't want us to alert the snake, so we came after that person left."

Xue Chang felt nervous, and immediately realized something, and asked, "The people from the Martial Arts Division are monitoring me?"

"The Military Inspection Department investigated the murderer of the Hot Spring Inn and monitored the Xue Mansion, hoping to find clues, not to mention that you are involved in the Iron Blood Changhemen!" Huiming rebuked in a stressful tone: "I have reminded you before that Iron Blood Changhemen involves too many things, and even the Military Inspection Department feels a headache. You are still involved in this vortex at a young age. How can you get out of here in the future!"

"Uncle Master, I don't want to do it either! But the people of the Iron Blood Changhemen insisted on coming to the door. I can't beat them, and I can't drive them away. What can I do not get involved?" Xue Chang looked helpless.

Huiming looked at him and then said for a moment: "Let's do this, tell me in detail what the iron-blooded Changhemen people said and did what they did here. Try to be more detailed and don't hide it, so as not to ask the military commander again."

Xue Chang's thoughts turned sharply: It seems that Master Huiming came to the mansion not only to implement the rules of Shaolin Temple, but also to be responsible for the surveillance task assigned by the Military Inspection Department: "Don't worry, uncle, I must tell the truth."

After hearing Xue Chang's story, Huiming's expression became even more serious: "Shadowless Divine Palm! It seems that the identity of this iron-blooded Changhemen is not simple!"

"What is the Shadowless Divine Palm?" Xue Chang asked curiously.

"I heard that it was one of the palm techniques that Ye Da Hero became famous back then. Its moves are light and elegant. Although it is a kind of palm that splits the sky, it can gather energy and form shape when used. Therefore, it is amazingly powerful and can hurt people invisibly within ten steps." Ming Zhen showed his longing eyes.

"It turns out that the light skills you used when you fought with Ming Zhen were taught by him." Huiming was not surprised that Xue Chang could perform them after just one day of learning. After all, he had already experienced it when teaching Baihua Fist. At this moment, he pondered: "Iron Blood Changhemen took the initiative to send people to approach you, and gave you such great benefits. It is definitely not only because you accepted an orphan of the Iron Blood Changhemen as your disciple. I am afraid there will be any major plan! You should be more careful. If there are people from Iron Blood Changhemen who come into contact with you in the future, or if you find their traces, it is best to take the initiative to tell the Welfare Division that with them as your backing, you will have nothing to worry about."
